Inventor: ERTEN GAMZE
IPC: H03H21/00
Filed: 1999-06-16
Abstract: This invention unifies a set of statistical signal processing, neuromorphic systems, and microelectronic implementation techniques for blind separation and recovery of mixed signals. A set of architectures, frameworks, algorithms, and devices for separating, discriminating, and recovering original signal sources by processing a set of received mixtures and functions of said signals are described. The adaptation inherent in the referenced architectures, frameworks, algorithms, and devices is based on processing of the received, measured, recorded or otherwise stored signals or functions thereof. There are multiple criteria that can be used alone or in conjunction with other criteria for achieving the separation and recovery of the original signal content from the signal mixtures. The composition adopts both discrete-time and continuous-time formulations with a view towards implementations in the digital as well as the analog domains of microelectronic circuits. This invention focuses on the development and formulation of dynamic architectures with adaptive update laws for multi-source blind signal separation/recovery. The system of the invention seeks to permit the adaptive blind separation and recovery of several unknown signals mixed together in changing interference environments with very minimal assumption on the original signals. The system of this invention has practical applications to non-multiplexed media sharing, adaptive interferer rejection, acoustic sensors, acoustic diagnostics, medical diagnostics and instrumentation, speech, voice, language recognition and processing, wired and wireless modulated communication signal receivers, and cellular communications. This invention also introduces a set of update laws and links minimization of mutual information and the information maximization of the output entropy function of a nonlinear neural network, specifically in relation to techniques for blind separation, discrimination and recovery of mixed signals. The system of the invention seeks to permit the adaptive blind separation and recovery of several unknown signals mixed together in changing interference environments with very minimal assumption on the original signals.

Patent EP-1118224-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HURST ROBERT N
IPC: G06T9/00
Filed: 1999-09-29
Abstract: During transform-based video compression processing, motion vectors, which are identified during motion estimation and then used during motion-compensated inter-frame differencing, are constrained to coincide with block boundaries in the reference data. Block-based motion vectors have components that correspond to integer multiples of block dimensions. For example, for (8x8) blocks, allowable motion vector components are (..., -16, -8, 0, +8, +16, ...). Constaining motion vectors in this way enables the resulting encoded video bitstream to be further processed in the transform domain without having to apply inverse and forward transforms. In particular, an existing input bitstream is partially decoded to recover the motion vectors and prediction error (i.e., dequantized transform coefficients). Because the motion vectors coincide with block boundaries in the corresponding reference data, motion-compensated inter-frame addition can then be performed in the transform domain to generate transform data for subsequent processing (which may ultimately involvere-encoding the transform data into another encoded video bitstream). Because motion compensation can be performed in the transform domain, the bitstream data can be further processed in the transform domain and without having to apply expensive and lossy inverse and forward transforms.

Inventor: SALINGER SHELDON N
IPC: H04B17/00
Filed: 1999-12-16
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un système qui permettent d'effectuer une préaccentuation adaptative de signaux transmis par un support de transmission stable mais connaissant des variations occasionnelles, tel qu'un signal d'une ligne d'abonné numérique ultra-rapide (VDSL), avant que ces signaux ne soient transmis par un émetteur (28) en vue de corriger une distorsion d'affaiblissement causée par la ligne de transmission VDSL. Au démarrage du système, ou lorsque les paramètres ou la configuration de la ligne sont modifiés, les émetteurs-récepteurs de terminaison de ligne aux deux extrémités de la ligne de transmission échangent des signaux d'étalonnage pour mesurer les courbes d'affaiblissement-fréquence de la ligne dans les deux sens. Par la suite, chaque fois que la bande de transmission du signal doit être modifiée dans l'un ou l'autre sens, l'émetteur (28) pour le sens concerné utilise la courbe d'affaiblissement mesurée pour la ligne pour calculer et établir un ensemble de coefficients de filtrage pour un filtre de préaccentuation (38) réglable. Le filtre de préaccentuation (38) filtre un signal à coefficient en affaiblissant au maximum les fréquences les moins atténuées par la ligne de transmission, de sorte que la réponse en fréquence nette du filtre de préaccentuation (38), plus la la ligne de transmission, est plate, ce qui élimine la distorsion d'affaiblissement.

Title: Multi stage multiple-phase flow meter
Inventor: MORRISON GERALD L
IPC: G01F1/88
Filed: 1999-09-10
Abstract: This invention is related to flow meter instrumentation. More particularly, the invention is related to obstruction flow meters which are used in series in a flow conduit to determine the volume flow rate of liquid and gas phases of fluid flowing within the conduit. Multiple flow meters including at least one obstruction type flow meter are positioned serially within a flow conduit such as a pipe. Mathematical equations are developed for each flow meter based upon measured quantities and phase flow rates within the liquid stream. These equations are then solved simultaneously to obtain the desired phase flow rates. Two flow meters are used to determine the gas and liquid flow rates. Alternately three flow meters are used to determine the flow rates of a gas and two liquid phases.

Title: Membrane virus host range mutations and their usesas vaccine substrates
Inventor: BROWN DENNIS T
IPC: A61P37/02
Filed: 2001-03-27
Abstract: The vaccines and methods of the present invention are based on deletion mutations in the protein transmembrane domains of membrane-enveloped viruses. The strategy for production of these mutations is based on the fact that unlike mammalian cell membranes, the membranes of insect cells contain no cholesterol; thus are thinner than mammalian membranes. Many membrane-coated viruses have membrane glycoproteins on their surface which are responsible for identifying and infecting target cells. These membrane glycoproteins have hydrophobic membrane-spanning domains which anchor the proteins in the membrane bilayer. The membrane-spanning domains of these transmembrane proteins must be long enough to reach from one side of the bilayer to the other in order to hold the proteins in the membrane. Provided is a vaccine, a method of producing this vaccine, and a method of using this vaccine, based on the differences between membranes of viruses replicated in invertebrates and membranes of viruses replicated in vertebrates.

Title: Large composite structures incorporating a resin distribution network
Inventor: TUNIS GEORGE C III
IPC: B29C45/02
Filed: 2003-05-13
Abstract: Large composite structures are produced using a vacuum assisted resin transfer molding process incorporating a resin distribution network. The resin distribution network is provided by a textured sheet (104) of metal formed as an integral vacuum bag and mold. The texture is formed by upraised portions (108) on one side of the sheet which correspond with depressions on the other side. Valleys between the upraised portions form the resin distribution network. A fiber lay up is placed against the textured sheet (104) with the upraised portions facing the lay up. Main feeder grooves (114) are also formed directly in the sheet (104). Resin is supplied under vacuum to the main feeder grooves, from where it travels through the valleys of the textured sheet (104) to impregnate the lay up. <IMAGE>
